Compass Road, limited edition 100 timepieces
Compass Road was designed with author Iain Sinclair. The names of eight writers and visionaries are positioned around the dial, each according to their geographic link with London. A pattern on the hour disk causes names to fade in and out of view as the time passes, a visual expression of Sinclair’s interest in uncovering forgotten layers of the city’s history.
The watch hands and typography pay tribute to the British road signage system designed by Margaret Calvert and Jock Kinneir and also makes a link to Sinclair's "London Orbital" book, which documented his walk around the M25 motorway which encircles London.
This watch is available in an edition of 100 pieces, each watch numbered on the caseback and comes with an insert card signed by both Iain Sinclair and Crispin Jones.
Each watch comes in a MJW presentation box with a specially commissioned artwork by Hannah Davies. Inside the box you'll find the guarantee card - every watch is guaranteed for 12 months from the date of purchase against any original manufacturing defect.
